Can anyone to relate?

Can anyone help or relate?
Was diagnosed Hashimoto’s a month ago after being hyperthyroid for about a month and a half.  My last blood test showed hypo thyroid.  Was put on Synthroid, 25mcg and I had HORRIBLE headaches and panic attacks.  Went back to Endo and she took me off the med.  She said my levels weren’t so bad as to need meds.  She also told me that I could be semi normal for awhile and then go hypo permanently.  My question is what happens now?   Has anyone else been in this sort of limbo?  What happens if I am very sensitive to Synthroid?  Is there another option?  Is Armour another option or does that have to be taken in addition to Synthroid?  Also for the past few days I just really feel all over the place.  I am tired, then I am wired.  I am hot, then cold.  I just really want an answer to this strange disease.  I have another blood test in a few weeks, so I will know then where I am.  I think my TSH was 4, which I know is high, she called it subclinical hypothyroid.  I don’t remember my T3 or T4.

Does anyone have advice or input without my labs? Those could be different now because my last blood test was a month ago. Just wondering if someone can relate to the symptoms I mentioned. Thanks!
